New Electric Harnesses for the Formula Opel Lotus

Pleasing appearance, simple suspension and a powerful Opel GSI engine made Formula Vauxhall a stepstone to Formula 1 in the 1990s. About 300 of these racing cars have been build und raced worldwide. Depending on country and region, the championships and cars have been named by sistering companies Opel, Vauxhall and Lotus-Cars. So, in Germany it was the Formel Opel Lotus or in England Formula Vauxhall Lotus. Unfortunately Formula Opel wasn't exactly a cheap pleasure: Not the least by the widespread involvement of international top racing teams the costs of competing in the EFDA European Formula Opel Challenge climbed up to Formula 3 levels.

Today, the timeless beauty Formula Opel cars are raced in many club level championships. Mostly the genuine vehicle and engine electrics are still in duty. Understandably after thirty years the old wiring looms are no more the most reliable. Aamgard Engineering has build some new engine looms over the past. Maintaining the original connectors, but over-all build to race spec quality.

If you are in need for a new wiring loom for your racing car: Just give a call. Or drop an e-mail.
